Now that Mother’s Day is coming in a few days, I thought I would share a few thrifty ideas for Mother’s Day.
Karen has already talked about a great craft idea of painting something for mom’s.
A family portrait from Sears is very reasonable. Just go to Sears Photo and find the coupons for free portraits.
There is […]

It always seems like I find someone every day who is talking about saving the environment. Granted, I want to be a good steward of hte things I am gifted, but I also want to use disposable diapers and I enjoy a good Styrofoam cup that doesn’t sweat all over my car or coffee table. […]

Just thought I would tell you a divine intervention story that happened to me today. This afternoon, I was running errands with my kids and needed to stop by the grocery store really quick to get some baby food before getting home by 3 pm for a conference call. I was headed to the store […]

I love the idea of Freepeats! It is a great web site for giving your baby, kid, and maternity stuff away. Granted, you don’t make any money by selling your stuff, but you also don’t have to take it anywhere. All you have to do is post that you have something to give away and […]

So for some reason, I have lost my ability to nurse Little Man. I am hoping my milk will come back soon. But I can certainly see the other side of the coin these days. It is very disheartening to have to pump and get only 2 oz at a time. It makes me want […]
